dave-O Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 I got comp tickets to see what passes for the Beach Boys at the Moncton Casino last year. It was so incredibly lame we left after 5 songs. Even with Brian WIlson, I could not recommend seeing them less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartamophone Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 But seriously folks, were The Beach Boys ever renowned as a quality live act? I'm asking out of legitimate curiosity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 But seriously folks, were The Beach Boys ever renowned as a quality live act? I'm asking out of legitimate curiosity. I think they had their moments before the destruction of the late '70s and '80s. This is pretty great. Carl was a hell of a singer.

boiler Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Brian Wilson looked pretty uncomfortable, possibly even disdainful, on the Grammy show. The other singer (wait while i google...done) Mike Love was a total cheeseball.oh well, I guess lots of performer on the Grammy's looks kinda cheesy and disdainful.
